Does "the family" mean "every citizen's family"?

Context:

Key voting blocs which Hitler needed to persuade to drop their opposition to a Nazi Government were the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Centre_Party and German conservatives. He pursued their votes with a mix of intimidation, negotiation and conciliation.[110] In a proclamation to the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany February 1, 1933, Hitler stated, "The National Government will regard it as its first and foremost duty to revive in the nation the spirit of unity and co-operation. It will preserve and defend those basic principles on which our nation has been built. It regards Christianity as the foundation of our national morality, and the family as the basis of national life."[111]
